Safety instructions

Overview

This chapter states the general safety instructions that must be followed when

installing and operating the RBIP-01 BACnet/IP Router Module.

The material in this chapter must be studied before attempting any work on, or with,

the unit.

In addition to the safety instructions given below, read the complete safety

instructions of the specific drive you are working on.

General safety instructions

WARNING! All electrical installation and maintenance work on the drive should be

carried out by qualified electricians. The drive and adjoining equipment must be

properly earthed.

Do not attempt any work on a powered drive. After switching off the mains, always

allow the intermediate circuit capacitors to discharge for 5 minutes before working on

the frequency converter, the motor or the motor cable. It is good practice to check

(with a voltage indicating instrument) that the drive is in fact discharged before

beginning work.

The motor cable terminals of the drive are at a dangerously high voltage when mains

power is applied, regardless of motor operation.

There can be dangerous voltages inside the drive from external control circuits even

when the drive mains power is shut off. Exercise appropriate care when working on

the unit. Neglecting these instructions can cause physical injury or death.

BBMD BACnet/IP Broadcast Management Device

Each IP subnetwork that is part of a B/IP network comprised of

two or more subnets has one BBMD. Each BBMD possesses a

Broadcast Distribution Table (BDT) which is the same in every

BBMD in a given B/IP network.

For more information, see section BACnet/IP Broadcast

Management Device in chapter Overview.

BDT Each BBMD posesses a Broadcast Distribution Table (BDT).

BDT contains a list of external BBMDs to which the broadcast

messages are transported. For more information, see section

BACnet/IP Broadcast Management Device in chapter Overview

and sections Global Options, Two-hop forwarding and Broadcast

Distribution Table Entry in chapter User interface.

Distribution mask A distribution mask or broadcast distribution mask indicates how

broadcast messages are to be distributed on the IP subnetwork

served by the BBMD.

FD A Foreign Device is a BACnet device that has an IP subnetwork

address different from those comprising the BACnet/IP network

that the device seeks to join. For more information, see section

Foreign Devices in chapter Overview.

FW_Revision Firmware_Revision is a property assigned by the vendor to

represent the level of firmware installed in the BACnet device.

MAC address The MAC address of the router module in the MS/TP network

MAX Info Frames In MS/TP, the Max_Info_Frames property specifies the maximum

number of information frames the node may send before it must

pass the token to the next node.

MS/TP Master-Slave/Token-Passing protocol designed specifically for

building automation and control devices as part of the BACnet

standard

One-hop forwarding There are two ways that a BBMD may distribute broadcast

messages to remote IP subnetworks: One-hop or two-hop

distribution.

For two-hop forwarding, see the description in this table.

For more information on one hop forwarding or directed

broadcast, see section Broadcast Distribution Table Entry in

chapter User interface. The one-hop mode requires that the IP

router serving the destination subnetwork is configured to

support the passage of directed broadcasts.

Poll For Master frame In MS/TP, the Poll For Master frame is transmitted by master

nodes during configuration and periodically during normal

network operation. It is used to discover the presence of other

master nodes on the network and to determine a successor node

in the token ring.

Both master and slave nodes shall expect to receive the Poll For

Master frames. The master nodes must respond to Poll For

Master frames, and the slave nodes must ignore them.

Token MS/TP uses a token to control access to a bus network. A

master node may initiate the transmission of a data frame when

it holds the token. Both master and slave nodes may transmit

data frames in response to requests from master nodes. See

also the description of Max_Info_Frames.

Introduction to this manual

Two-hop forwarding There are two ways that a BBMD may distribute broadcast

messages to remote IP subnetworks: One-hop or two-hop

distribution.

For one-hop forwarding, see the description in this table.

All IP routers are not configured to pass directed broadcasts.

Therefore BBMD may be configured to send a directed message

to the BBMD on the remote subnetwork (two-hop distribution)

which then transmits it using the B/IP broadcast address.

For more information on two-hop forwarding or two-hop

distribution, see section Global Options, Two-hop forwarding in

chapter User interface.

UDP User Datagram Protocol uses the Internet Protocol as the

underlying protocol. It enables programs running on different

computers on a network to communicate by sending short

messages known as datagrams to each other.

Overview

What this chapter contains

This chapter gives basic information on BACnet routing and describes the RBIP-01

BACnet/IP Router Module.

Introduction to BACnet routing

BACnet routers

BACnet routers are devices that interconnect BACnet networks to form a BACnet

internetwork. The BACnet routers use the messages of the BACnet network layer

protocol (layer 3) to maintain their routing tables and exchange their routing

information.

BACnet network numbers

BACnet network numbers are assigned to the BACnet router devices. Each single

router knows the BACnet network number of each of the data link layers and

interfaces supported by the router.

The network number is valid in the range from 1 to 65.535.

The BACnet network numbers must be unique within the entire BACnet network.

BACnet network layer messages

BACnet supports 10 network layer messages that the router devices exchange. The

two most important messages are "Who-Is-Router-To-Network" and "I-Am-Router-

To-Network". They are sent as broadcast to determine other router devices and to

distribute to the other router devices information about the router’s own routing

capabilities.

BACnet/IP vs. BACnet/Ethernet

BACnet/Ethernet (ISO 8802-2 type 1 on ISO 8802-3), the so-called layer 2 Ethernet

uses only ISO/OSI layer 1 and 2 for transport. Standard IT routers transport the

Internet Protocol up to layer 3, so BACnet/Ethernet would not be transported through

networks based on the Internet Protocol.

BACnet/IP uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) based on the Internet Protocol,

so BACnet/IP normally is transported through networks transporting IP messages.

The RBIP-01 BACnet/IP Router Module fully supports both BACnet/IP and BACnet/

Ethernet.

Overview

BACnet/IP and BACnet/Ethernet in the same media

If you use BACnet/IP and BACnet/Ethernet in the same media (same network),

always make sure that only one router from BACnet/IP to BACnet/Ethernet is used

per network.

Using more than one router from BACnet/IP to BACnet/Ethernet in the same media

causes a network broadcast flood, which can stop most communication on this

network. Adding more than one router of this kind creates a loop of telegrams and

the router starts to send broadcast messages back and forth permanently. The

connected router then at least doubles the telegram.

If you notice that the network communication often fails or slows down significantly,

check all routers and make sure that only one router provides routing from BACnet/

IP to BACnet/Ethernet in your network.

In the RBIP-01 BACnet/IP Router Module, BACnet/Ethernet is not activated by

default.

BACnet/IP Broadcast Management Device

BACnet/IP Broadcast Management Devices (BBMD) are used to transport broadcast

messages through networks, where standard IP routers block the transport of

broadcast messages.

BBMD transports the broadcast messages from the local network to other BBMD

devices as a unicast message, so the messages pass the IP router. The external

BBMD sends this broadcast message within the external local network as a

forwarded broadcast. This method is like a tunnel through the entire network for

transporting the messages from or to the BACnet subnetworks.

This way the broadcast messages do not appear in other subnetworks except the

ones with a connected BBMD.

Each BBMD posesses a Broadcast Distribution Table (BDT). BDT contains a list of

external BBMDs to which the broadcast messages are transported.

Note: Use BBMD only in the networks where IT routers block broadcast messages.

If you connect two BBMDs in a subnetwork without IP routers (or in a subnetwork

where IP routers do not block broadcast messages), this causes a broadcast flood

(exactly the same as providing more than one BACnet/IP to BACnet/Ethernet router

in the same media).

Foreign Devices

Foreign Devices (FD) connect to BBMD to retrieve the broadcast messages from the

subnetwork where the BBMD resides. FDs do not provide broadcast distribution to

its local subnetwork.

Overview

RBIP-01 BACnet/IP Router Module

The RBIP-01 BACnet/IP Router Module is a BACnet router. It is a snap-on module,

fitted inside the drive and fully compatible with all ABB ACH550 standard drives for

to ensure that the capacitor bank of the drive is discharged. Switch off all dangerous

voltages connected from external control circuits to the inputs and outputs of the

drive. For more information, see chapter Safety instructions.

Note: Do not connect the router module to the network before you have

commissioned the device!

1. Connect the crossover cable delivered in the router module package to the

module and your PC.

2. If not done, set your PC to run as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

(DHCP) client or set the IP address of your PC manually to 192.168.0.2/

255.255.255.0.

• If you use DHCP, activate the DHCP server in the router module by pressing

and holding the Reset switch of the router module down for more than 5

seconds, but not longer than 10 seconds. As soon as the STATUS LED flashes

red and green alternating, the DHCP server is active.

3. In your web browser, enter the IP address http://192.168.0.1 and login to the

router module using the user name/password combination admin/admin. For

supported browsers, see RBIP-01 BACnet/IP Router Module Installation Manual

(3AUA0000040168 Rev A [English]).

4. Open the Assistant menu. Go through all its pages from left to right and apply

the settings according to your BACnet project. Confirm all settings on each page

by clicking the Save button.

5. On the Activate page, activate the configuration by clicking Activate and

Restart. Restarting the router module takes 25 seconds.

6. If you changed the IP address of the router module, adjust the IP address

settings of your PC accordingly.

Working with the web server

What this chapter contains

This chapter contains instructions on connecting to the web server of the RBIP-01

BACnet/IP Router Module, login/logout instructions, general setting instructions and

a list of the user right levels. For more information on the menu structure of the web

server and detailed setting instructions, see chapter User interface.

Connecting to the web server

The router module package contains a crossover network cable. The cable is inside

the package under a lid. Use this cable only for commissioning the router module. It

is not designed to be used for any other purpose after commissioning the module.

You can also use a standard CAT 5 STP cable.

WARNING! Before installation, switch off the drive power supply. Wait five minutes

to ensure that the capacitor bank of the drive is discharged. Switch off all dangerous

voltages connected from external control circuits to the inputs and outputs of the

drive.

Note: Do not connect the router module to the network before you have

commissioned the device!

For more information, see chapter Safety instructions.

1. Connect the crossover network cable to the RJ-45 connector of the router

module with the network connector of your PC. Avoid parallel runs with power

cables, for example, motor cables.

2. Switch the drive power on.

3. Wait till the steady orange STATUS LED of the router module is no more on. It is

lit for approximately 25 seconds in the starting phase after power-up. During

start-up, the router module does not respond. The flashing orange STATUS LED

after start-up indicates that the module is running with factory settings and needs

to be commissioned.

4. If not done, set your PC to run as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

(DHCP) client or set the IP address of your PC manually to 192.168.0.2/

255.255.255.0.

• If you use DHCP, activate the DHCP server in the router module by pressing

and holding the Reset switch of the router module down for more than 5

seconds, but not longer than 10 seconds. As soon as the STATUS LED flashes

red and green alternating, the DHCP server is active.

Working with the web server

5. To connect to the web server of the router module, open your web browser, for

example Microsoft Internet Explorer. Enter IP address 192.168.0.1 in the

address field and press Enter. The router module displays the web server Start

page. For the supported browsers, see RBIP-01 BACnet/IP Router Module

Installation Manual (3AUA0000040168 Rev A [English]).

When you start the router module for the first time, the Start page displays "RBIP-01

not commissioned. Default configuration active!". The router module must be set up

according to the settings of your BACnet project.
